Summary

"Each one of us is a triumvirate being - at once the union of the body, soul, and all that lies within." For any that exprience disharmony amongst these three vital aspects, Dr. Clarissa Estes reveals a path back to wholeness. Join her with the Joyous Body for the third volume of her masterwork on the Wise Woman archetype. This empowering six-session program shares original and old family stories, poems and psychological commentary on the challenges, remedies and ancient knowings of the female body, "that which is not a dumb servant but a divine human traveler and consort."

deliciousness for the soul

I love, love, love cpe and her way with words. this book is exceptionally beautiful and lets you see the multi layers of the soul and spirit intertwined with the body. it is a celebration of each individual and every body. especially loved hearing the aunt Edna stories. highly recommended for all women, but especially those who feel low self esteem and who need to be pieced back together and gently steered back to self love and self worth.

loved it. Will be on repeat many times. Thank you so much for such a beautiful gathering of stories and wisdom.

I just love this woman!

Wonderful as always. I always feel so inspired by Clarissa's writings. It's a time to feel like you fit, and to celebrate the wild woman within. Let her shine. Everything she writes, speaks fills me with a renewed sense of womanhood and wonder!

soothing and inspiring

The authors voice is very pleasant and she has such an open and friendly manner of speaking to the listener. Soothing and enchanting stories which, after absorbing them, become more and more relevant.

beautiful

I have no words to describe the profiund effect this book has had on me. it might be my Hungarian heritage, or just the loving voice and amazing people...
I had tears in my eyes several times while listening to this audio book.
definitely worth reading/listening
